Answer:
The percentage is k = 2.3%
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The population mean is [tex]\mu = 47[/tex]
The standard deviation is [tex]\sigma = 14[/tex]
Given that the sales are normally distributed and that students at a certain school who sell at least 75 magazine subscriptions win a prize then the percent of the fourth grade students receive a prize is mathematically represented as
[tex]P(X > 75) = P(\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } > \frac{75 - \mu }{\sigma })[/tex]
Generally
[tex]\frac{X - \mu }{\sigma } = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]
So
[tex]P(X > 75) = P(Z > \frac{75 - 47 }{14 })[/tex]
[tex]P(X > 75) = P(Z > 2)[/tex]
From the standardized normal distribution table
[tex]P(Z > 2) =0.023[/tex]
=> [tex]P(X > 75) = 0.023[/tex]
The percentage of the fourth grade students receive a prize is
k = 0.023 * 100
k = 2.3%

What is the solution to X+9 = 24?
A. x = 33
B. x= 15
C. x= 18
D. x= 9
Answer:
X+9=24
Or,x=24-9
:.x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B. x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the solution to the equation, we must get x by itself on one side of the equation.
[tex]x+9=24[/tex]
9 is being added to x. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 9 from both sides of the equation.
[tex]x+9-9=24-9[/tex]
[tex]x=24-9[/tex]
[tex]x=15[/tex]
Let's check our solution. Plug 15 in for x.
[tex]x+9=24 (x=15)[/tex]
[tex]15+9=24[/tex]
[tex]24=24[/tex]
This checks out, so we know our solution is correct. The answer is B. x=15
Question on Statistics and Confidence Intervals
A field test for a new exam was given to randomly selected seniors. The exams were graded, and the sample mean and sample standard deviation were calculated. Based on the results, the exam creator claims that on the same exam, nine times out of ten, seniors will have an average score within 5% of 75%.
Is the confidence interval at 90%, 95%, or 99%? What is the margin of error? Calculate the confidence interval and explain what it means in terms of the situation. (10 points)
The phrasing "nine times out of ten" means 9/10 = 0.90 = 90% is the confidence level. We're confident 90% of the time that the confidence interval captures the population parameter we're after (in this case mu = population mean)
The portion "have an average score within 5% of 75%" means that 75% = 0.75 is the center of the confidence interval, and it goes as low as 0.75 - 0.05 = 0.70 and as high as 0.75 + 0.05 = 0.80
This confidence interval is from 70% to 80%, meaning that nine times out of ten, we're confident that the average score is between 70% and 80%
We write the confidence interval as (0.70, 0.80). It's common to use the notation (L, U) to indicate the lower (L) and upper (U) boundaries. You might see the notation in the form L < mu < U. If so, then it would be 0.70 < mu < 0.80; either way they mean the same thing.
The margin of error is 0.05 as its the 5% radius of the interval. It tells us how far the most distant score is from the center (75%)
=========================================
In summary, we have these answers
confidence level = 90%margin of error = 5% = 0.05confidence interval = (0.70, 0.80)interpretation = We're 90% confident that the average exam score is between 0.70 and 0.80Which quadratic equation would be used to solve for the unknown dimensions?

Answer:
∑(-1)^k/(2k+1)! (5x)^2k+1
From k = 1 to 3.
= -196.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
∑(-1)^k/(2k+1)! (5x)^2k+1
From k = 0 to infinity
The expression that includes all terms up to order 3 is:
∑(-1)^k/(2k+1)! (5x)^2k+1
From k = 0 to 3.
= 0 + (-1/2 × 5³) + (1/6 × 10^5) + (-1/5040 × 15^5)

= - 196.5
Identify whether the sampling method is simple random, systematic, stratified, cluster, or convenience. Explain.
In a nationwide study of registered voters conducted by The New York Times, 390 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Republicans, 430 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Democrats, and 180 people are randomly selected out of those registered as Independents.
Answer: stratified
Step-by-step explanation:
In stratified sampling, you divide the population into subgroups, or strata, with similar characteristics, like here we have divided the population into subgroups that depend on their political alignment. This is used when you can expect that the results have a noticeable variation between the different subgroups. Usually, you want to have the same number of population for eac subgroup, but sometimes it is hard for different reasons (not enough people in one subgroup, for example)
In cluster sampling we also use subgroups, but the subgroup itself is the unit of the sampling, while in this case, we are randomly selecting individuals of the given subgroups.
So this would be a "stratified sampling".
point estimate A sample of 81 observations is taken from a normal population with a standard deviation of 5. The sample mean is 40. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the population mean
Answer:
The 95 percent Confidence Interval is for the population is (38.911 , 41.089)
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the above question, we would be making use of the confidence interval formula:
Confidence Interval = Mean ± z score × σ/√n
In the above question,
Mean = 40
σ = Standard deviation = 5
n = number of samples = 81
Confidence Interval = 95%
The z score for a 95% confidence interval = 1.96
Therefore, the confidence interval =
= 40 ± 1.96 (5/√81)
= 40 ± 1.96(5/9)
= 40 ± 1.0888888889
Confidence Interval
a)40 + 1.0888888889
= 41.0888888889
Approximately = 41.089
b ) 40 - 1.0888888889
= 38.911111111
Approximately = 38.911
Therefore, the 95 percent Confidence Interval is for the population is (38.911 , 41.089)
In 2018, the population of a district was 25,000. With a continuous annual growth rate of approximately 4%, what will the
population be in 2033 according to the exponential growth function?
Round the answer to the nearest whole number.
Answer:
40,000 populationsStep-by-step explanation:
Initial population in 2018 = 25,000
Annual growth rate (in %) = 4%
Yearly Increment in population = 4% of 25000
= 4/100 * 25000
= 250*4
= 1000
This means that the population increases by 1000 on yearly basis.
To determine what the population will be in 2033, we need to first know the amount of years we have between 2018 and 2033.
Amount of years we have between 2018 and 2033 = 2033-2018
= 15 years
After 15 years, the population will have increased by 15*1000 i.e 15,000 more than the initial population.
Hence the population in 2033 will be Initial population + Increment after 15years = 25,000+15000 = 40,000 population.

Last Sunday, the average temperature was 8\%8%8, percent higher than the average temperature two Sundays ago. The average temperature two Sundays ago was TTT degrees Celsius. Which of the following expressions could represent the average temperature last Sunday?
Work Shown:
T = average Celsius temperature two Sundays ago
8% = 8/100 = 0.08
8% of T = 0.08T
L = average Celsius temperature last sunday
L = 8% higher than T
L = T + (8% of T)
L = T + 0.08T
L = 1.00T + 0.08T
L = (1.00 + 0.08)T
L = 1.08T
The 1.08 refers to the idea that L is 108% of T

The radius of a right circular cylinder is increasing at the rate of 7 in./sec, while the height is decreasing at the rate of 6 in./sec. At what rate is the volume of the cylinder changing when the radius is 20 in. and the height is 16 in.
Answer:
[tex]\approx \bold{6544\ in^3/sec}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Rate of change of radius of cylinder:
[tex]\dfrac{dr}{dt} = +7\ in/sec[/tex]
(This is increasing rate so positive)
Rate of change of height of cylinder:
[tex]\dfrac{dh}{dt} = -6\ in/sec[/tex]
(This is decreasing rate so negative)
To find:
Rate of change of volume when r = 20 inches and h = 16 inches.
Solution:
First of all, let us have a look at the formula for Volume:
[tex]V = \pi r^2h[/tex]
Differentiating it w.r.to 't':
[tex]\dfrac{dV}{dt} = \dfrac{d}{dt}(\pi r^2h)[/tex]
Let us have a look at the formula:
[tex]1.\ \dfrac{d}{dx} (C.f(x)) = C\dfrac{d(f(x))}{dx} \ \ \ (\text{C is a constant})\\2.\ \dfrac{d}{dx} (f(x).g(x)) = f(x)\dfrac{d}{dx} (g(x))+g(x)\dfrac{d}{dx} (f(x))[/tex]
[tex]3.\ \dfrac{dx^n}{dx} = nx^{n-1}[/tex]
Applying the two formula for the above differentiation:
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi\dfrac{d}{dt}( r^2h)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi h\dfrac{d }{dt}( r^2)+\pi r^2\dfrac{dh }{dt}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi h\times 2r \dfrac{dr }{dt}+\pi r^2\dfrac{dh }{dt}[/tex]
Now, putting the values:
[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = \pi \times 16\times 2\times 20 \times 7+\pi\times 20^2\times (-6)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = 22 \times 16\times 2\times 20 +3.14\times 400\times (-6)\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} = 14080 -7536\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{dV}{dt} \approx \bold{6544\ in^3/sec}[/tex]
So, the answer is: [tex]\approx \bold{6544\ in^3/sec}[/tex]
#2. Given the following conditional statement; which answer is
represents the biconditional statement: "If Mr. Anderson is a ninja, then
he can run like Naruto."
Mr. Anderson is a ninja iff he can run like Naruto.
Mr. Anderson can run like Naruto iff he is a ninja.
Mr. Anderson is Naruto iff he can run like a ninja.
Answer:
Mr. Anderson can run like Naruto iff he is a ninja.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is because, in the statement "If Mr. Anderson is a ninja, then he can run like Naruto.", the sub-statement, "he can run like Naruto.", depends on the sub-statement 'If Mr Anderson is a Ninja'. This means that although Mr. Anderson is a Ninja, he can only run like Naruto if and only if he is a Ninja implying that if Mr Anderson is not a Ninja, he cannot run like Naruto.
So, Mr Anderson can run like Naruto iff he is a Ninja is the correct answer

Tessa’s employee benefits include family health care coverage. She contributes 18% of the cost. Tessa gets paid biweekly and $108.00 is taken out of each paycheck for family health care coverage. How much does her employer contribute annually for the family coverage? Clearly show your work.
The answer is $12792
Explanation:
It is known Tessa pays $108.00 to contribute to family coverage every two weeks and this represents 18% of the total payment. This implies the employer pays the 82% missing (100% - 18% = 82%). Additionally, with this information, it is possible to know the amount the employer has to pay every two weeks that represents 82%. The process is shown below:
1. Write the values you know and use x to represent the value you need to find
108 = 18
x = 82
3. Cross multiply
x 18 = 8856
4. Find the value of x by solving this simple equation
x = 8856 ÷ 18
x = 492 - Amount the employer pays every two weeks for Tessa's family coverage
Now that we know the money the employer pays every two weeks, it is possible to calculate the annual amount of money. Follow the process below.
1. Consider one year has a total of 52 weeks and divide this number of weeks by 2 because the payment for the family coverage occurs every 2 weeks
52 ÷ 2 = 26
2. Finally, multiply the money paid by the employer every two weeks by 26
26 weeks x $492 = $12792- This is the total the employer pays annually
How to graph the line y=4/3x
Answer:
make a table of values
Step-by-step explanation:
then plot using those values
The required graph has been attached which represents the line y = 4/3x
What is a graph?A graph can be defined as a pictorial representation or a diagram that represents data or values.
We have been given the equation of a line below as:
y = 4/3x
Rewrite in slope-intercept form.
y = (4/3)x
Use the slope-intercept form to discover the slope and y-intercept.
Here the slope is 4/3 and y-intercept = (0, 0)
Any line can be graphed using two points. Select two x values, and plug them into the equation to find the corresponding y values.
When substitute the value of x = 0, then the value of y = 0, and When substitute the value of x = 3, then the value of y = -4,
Hence, the graph represents the line y = 4/3x
Therefore, the required graph of the line y=4/3x will be shown in the as attached file.

Records indicate that x years after 2008, the average property tax on a three bedroom home in a certain community was T(x) =20x^2+40x+600 dollars.
Required:
a. At what rate was the property tax increasing with respect to time in 2008?
b. By how much did the tax change between the years 2008 and 2012?
Answer:
a) 40 dollars
b) 480 dollars
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the average property tax on a three bedroom home in a certain community modelled by the equation T(x) =20x²+40x+600, the rate at which the property tax is increasing with respect to time in 2008 can be derived by solving for the function T'(x) at x=0
T'(x) = 2(20)x¹ + 40x° + 0
T'(x) = 40x+40
At x = 0,
T'(0) = 40(0)+40
T'(0) = 40
Hence the property tax was increasing at a rate of 40dollars with respect to the initial year (2008).
b) There are 4 years between 2008 and 2012. To know how much that the tax change between the years 2008 and 2012, we will find T(4) - T(0)
Given T(x) =20x²+40x+600
T(4) =20(4)²+40(4)+600
T(4) = 320+160+600
T(4) = 1080 dollars
Also T(0) =20(0)²+40(0)+600
T(0) = 0+0+600
T(0)= 600 dollars
T(4) - T(0) = 1080 - 600
T(4) - T(0) = 480 dollars
Hence, the tax has changed by $480 between 2008 and 2012
What is the value of x to the nearest tenth?
Answer:
x=9.6
Step-by-step explanation:
The dot in the middle represents the center of the circle, so therefore, the line that is represented by 16 is the radius. Since that is the radius, the side that is the hypotenuse of the small triangle is also 16, since they have the same distance.
The line represented by 25.6 with x as its bisector shows that when we divide it by 2, the other side of the triangle besides the hypotenuse is 12.8.
Now that we have the two sides of the triangle, we can find the last side (represented by x). Use pythagorean theorem:
[tex]a^2 +b^2=c^2\\x^2+(12.8)^2=16^2\\x^2+163.84=256\\x^2=92.16\\x=9.6[/tex]

Find the area of the surface generated by revolving x=t + sqrt 2, y= (t^2)/2 + sqrt 2t+1, -sqrt 2 <= t <= sqrt about the y axis
The area is given by the integral
[tex]\displaystyle A=2\pi\int_Cx(t)\,\mathrm ds[/tex]
where C is the curve and [tex]dS[/tex] is the line element,
[tex]\mathrm ds=\sqrt{\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2+\left(\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}\right)^2}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
We have
[tex]x(t)=t+\sqrt 2\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dx}{\mathrm dt}=1[/tex]
[tex]y(t)=\dfrac{t^2}2+\sqrt 2\,t+1\implies\dfrac{\mathrm dy}{\mathrm dt}=t+\sqrt 2[/tex]
[tex]\implies\mathrm ds=\sqrt{1^2+(t+\sqrt2)^2}\,\mathrm dt=\sqrt{t^2+2\sqrt2\,t+3}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
So the area is
[tex]\displaystyle A=2\pi\int_{-\sqrt2}^{\sqrt2}(t+\sqrt 2)\sqrt{t^2+2\sqrt 2\,t+3}\,\mathrm dt[/tex]
Substitute [tex]u=t^2+2\sqrt2\,t+3[/tex] and [tex]\mathrm du=(2t+2\sqrt 2)\,\mathrm dt[/tex]:
[tex]\displaystyle A=\pi\int_1^9\sqrt u\,\mathrm du=\frac{2\pi}3u^{3/2}\bigg|_1^9=\frac{52\pi}3[/tex]

If Company X has 1600 employees and 80% of those employees have attended the warehouse training course how many employees have yet to attend?
Answer:
320
Step-by-step explanation:
Total no of employees = 1600
% of employees attended the training = 80%
no. of employee who attended the training = 80/100* 1600 = 1280
No. of employees who are yet to attend the training = Total no of employees - no. of employee who attended the training = 1600-1280 = 320
Thus, 320 employees have yet to attend the training

Sarah has $30,000 in her bank account today. Her grand-father has opened this account for her 15 years ago when she was born. Calculate the money that was deposited in the account 15 years ago if money has earned 3.5% p.a. compounded monthly through all these years.
Answer:
Deposit value(P) = $17,760 (Approx)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Future value (F) = $30,000
Number of Year (n) = 15 year = 15 × 12 = 180 month
rate of interest (r) = 3.5% = 0.035 / 12 = 0.0029167
Find:
Deposit value(P)
Computation:
[tex]A = P(1+r)^n\\\\ 30000 = P(1+0.0029167)^{180} \\\\ 30000 = P(1.68917) \\\\ P = 17760.2018[/tex]
Deposit value(P) = $17,760 (Approx)
Two charged particles, Q1, and Q2, are a distance r apart with Q2 = 5Q1 Compare the forces they exert on one another when F1 is the force Q2 exerts on Q1and F2 is the force Q1 exerts on Q2.
a) F2 = 5F1.
b) F2 =-5F1.
c) F2 = F1.
d) F2 = -F1.
e) 5F2 = F1.
Answer:
d) F2 = -F1.
Step-by-step explanation:
According to Coulomb's law of forces on electrostatic charges, the force of attraction is proportional to the product of their charges, and inversely proportional to the square of their distance apart.
What this law means is that both particles will experience an equal amount of force on them, due to the presence of the other particle. This force is not just as a result of their individual charges, but as a result of the product of their charges. Also, the force is a vector quantity that must have a direction alongside its magnitude, and the force on the two particles will always act in opposite direction, be it repulsive or attractive.
